4th25 - Behind The Screens lyrics
rate meV1<br />
I've been around the block<br />
I've seen whats happening<br />
This is just a game to some of you<br />
Best the rest of us are not laughin<br />
<br />
Cause to me my lifes worth more<br />
Than just part of your fraction<br />
When divided represents<br />
The number of us killed in action<br />
<br />
Thought I could trust those in charge<br />
Look at me now im laughin<br />
Think its funny how you keep fuckin up<br />
And want me to respect you<br />
<br />
Fuck the rank on your collar<br />
That don't mean shit<br />
Even if you got 4 stars on em<br />
You still a bitch<br />
<br />
Got out here like slaves<br />
Fresh of the ship<br />
Where you would see us pick your cotton<br />
And get our ass whipped<br />
<br />
Cause right now<br />
That's whats happenin and yall aint doin shit<br />
But tyin my hands to my ankles<br />
Telling me stop Michael vick<br />
<br />
And could you please explain to me<br />
What is hostile intent<br />
And why you gave me a mouthful of water<br />
And complain when I spit<br />
<br />
No I aint mad im a soldier<br />
Ill kill for my country<br />
Im only pissed<br />
Cause you brought me all the way out here just to fuck me<br />
<br />
Chorus<br />
Behind the screens in this theatre<br />
It's a whole lot of issues<br />
And it's a lotta balls dropped<br />
That eventually kill us<br />
<br />
And for some<br />
That's the reason that yalls familys now miss you<br />
All cause one mofuckers out here<br />
Playin with continues<br />
<br />
But this game has no restarts<br />
Soon as death comes to get you<br />
Aint no cheat codes for life here<br />
Just the one god gives you<br />
<br />
But they got us out here like naw<br />
Death wont get you<br />
But explain that to the families<br />
Of the soldiers lives yall ruined<br />
<br />
V2<br />
Yall cant have a clue of<br />
The fuck yall doin<br />
As many soldiers lives<br />
As your decisions have ruined<br />
<br />
Got us out here getting fucked up<br />
That's all we doin<br />
While yall fly around with yalls cape on<br />
Pretendin yall not stupid<br />
<br />
But I've seen too many car bombs<br />
We are not allowed to shoot at<br />
Come from the rear of a convoy<br />
Now how the fuck we letm do that<br />
<br />
Cause in my mind<br />
Wouldn't no car ride that close<br />
If at all times im authorized<br />
To exercise my bolt<br />
<br />
And I've been thru yalls AO<br />
I've seen how yall work it<br />
Tahoe or suburban<br />
For every civilian there workin<br />
<br />
But its too much<br />
For an 1114 here am I not worth it<br />
Or is it ok to send me to war<br />
With something that's not workin<br />
<br />
And yall rewardin this country<br />
Though the violence aint stopped<br />
Feedin the same fuckers killen us<br />
And that's pissin me off<br />
<br />
No I aint come here to be no target<br />
But that's what you make me<br />
And im just wonderin when yall gone let me<br />
Take this weapon off safety.<br />
<br />
Chorus<br />
<br />
V3<br />
Probably should of kept this to myself<br />
But my conscious wont see it<br />
So I can pull no punches<br />
I can only tell it how I see it<br />
<br />
And everything from my perspective<br />
Is definitely warped<br />
And why the fuck we train soldiers<br />
To let politicians fight wars<br />
<br />
And if the medias gon be here<br />
Letme see the truth<br />
Don't ask soldiers to pose<br />
And pretend wars cute<br />
<br />
And fuckem if they don't understand<br />
The job we are here to do<br />
This is war and people will die<br />
Innocent ones to<br />
<br />
And the only reason we are here<br />
Is cause diplomacy failed<br />
And to the day we redeployed<br />
We should have unleashed hell<br />
<br />
But yall talk a lot more shit<br />
Than yall would ever commit<br />
Telling me wave and be nice<br />
Shit im trying to grab my dick<br />
<br />
And walk this country like im god<br />
Instead you made me a bitch<br />
And now this country think im soft<br />
And they are killin us quick<br />
<br />
I know you gotta see this is broke<br />
Then why the fuck it aint fixed<br />
Cause I'd a never left home<br />
If you'd a told me you was cutting my wrists
